Constraint Data Records

  A Constraint Data Set is denoted by a `KEY' of 103 in the data set header record.

KEY, ANAME, LPNR, NANT, IDOF1

To be read with the format:

FORMAT(1X, I2, 1X, 8A1, 2(I5,1X), 6I1)

Where:


KEY = -1 for a data header record
= -3 for the data set delimiter record which is an
otherwise blank record inserted at the end of the data set.
ANAME = Name of point, line, surface or body
LPNR = Sequence Number
NANT = Number of nodes to follow
IDOF(6) = 6 degrees of freedom, 0 not affected, 1 constrained

And then the physical data:

KEY, NODE1,...NODE15

To be read with the format:

FORMAT(1X, I2, 15I5)
or: FORMAT (1X, I2, 15I10) for 10 digit node number format
Where:


KEY = -2 for a data continuation record
NODE1 - NODE15 = node numbers
